d&k

some good friends of ours, darren and kathleen, recently made the trek across the rockies to come visit us and to attend a david crowder concert. it was a quick visit, but we were able to spend some quality time with them.
darren is a camera buff, so we took them out to the forest so he could practice his art.
i love the trees on the mountains east of cultus lake. these are some of my attempts to capture their splendour. i havent seen darren's yet, but i know he got some nice shots.

niko took good care of our guests and did his best to make them feel welcome. darren and kathleen enjoyed him and appreciated his foibles; at one point darren picked up my camera to record niko in his makeshift lair under the table. kathleen grew up with dogs and they are thinking of getting a puppy soon.

having darren around inspired me to fiddle with my nikon a bit more.

now we are across the continent in ottawa, staying with carlynne and dan. it is beautiful here and we spent a sunny day today in the hills of gatineau with chris and katherine. more on that to come.
